There is no shadow of turning with Thee;
Thou changest not, Thy compassions, they fail not
As Thou hast been, Thou for ever will be.

Great is thy faithfulness,
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed thy hand hath provided,
Great is thy faithfulness, Lord unto me.

Great is thy faithfulness,


Great is thy faithfulness,
Morning by morning new mercies I see;
All I have needed thy hand hath provided,
Great is thy faithfulness, Lord unto me.

Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide.
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow,
Blessings all mine, with ten thousand beside.

Chorus

Great is thy faithfulness,
Morning by morning new mercies I see;

This exhibit takes us into the working studio - the streets of Chicago - of Jesse Howard,
nationally-renowned Chicago-based artist and winner of the 2015 Jurors Award at
the Wright Museum of Beloit. Jesses work shows the gritty underside of Chicagos
disenfranchised men, women, and children, many of them of color, and captures how
their very existence puts into stark relief the hypocrisy of our national society, made
personal here in Chicago.

Mind Power

The line formed at Garretts Popcorn in the Chatham community is an all too common
sight. In many respects, the photo is metaphor for the hunger for quality retail
establishments in our neighborhoods. But apparently, there is also demand for shiny,
newly-constructed payday loan stores that occupy prominent corner retail space.
This is the main reason for the Endeleo Institute to create The Financial Literacy
Academy. There is a systemic issue regarding our relationship with money and it
largely contributes to why just one-fifth of our kids complete college within six years.
The program goal is to integrate math, finance, and entrepreneurship and create a
completely different mindset when it comes to decision-making.
If you are the parent of a young person (grades 4th 12th), please contact our office at
773-966-1583. The line for financial empowerment forms here.
